Stale Bread
I noticed in The Listener a few weeks ago, you were asking if anyone had tried freshening bread by putting it under a running tap and then baking it in the oven. I have, dozens of times, and it is completely successful. Scones can be freshened in the same way, using milk instead of water. By the way, here is a recipe for using stale bread which makes very nice Savoury Fingers for using with salad, or simply by themselves. Four ounces of tasty cheese, 1 tablespoon of vinegar, 1 teaspoon of sugar, 1 teaspoon of salt, 1 teaspoon of butter, and not quite a teaspoon each of mustard and
pepper. Melt the butter in a pan. Beat an egg and mix with the grated cheese, stir in the rest of the ingredients, and add all to the pan. Cook a few minutes. Then slice the stale bread very thinly, cut into fingers, spread with the mixture, and bake in a slow oven till crisp.
